my review : ✮✮✮

A story… within a story... within a story??

This book is perfect for all my book lovers who delight in the prospect of solving a mystery.

Our story starts in a location that is near and dear to many of you… the library! The reading room at the Boston Public Library, to be exact. Four strangers sit at a group table, each occupied by their own tasks. But the tranquility is shattered when a woman’s scream echoes through the library. Security instructs all library goers to stay put as they investigate, and while they wait for the all-clear, the four begin chatting. Each has their own reasons for being in the reading room that morning, it just happens that one is a murderer.

I found this story to be a clever take on the traditional murder mystery. I enjoyed the characters and personally was delighted by the story within the story.

I did feel the book wrapped up very quickly, but that may just be me. Overall, an enjoyable murder mystery to enjoy with an old-fashioned in a very dark library.

you’ll love this book if you love:

• Knives Out

• Clue
